IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION WARNING:
Always turn off power at the main power source by
unscrewing fuse or switching circuit breaker to the
off position before installing, removing, cleaning, or
servicing thermostat.
Read all of the information in this manual before
installing or programming this thermostat.
This is a 24V AC low voltage thermostat. Do not
install on voltages higher than 30V AC.
All wiring must conform to local and national
building and electrical codes and ordinances.
Do not short (jumper) across terminals on the gas
valve or at the system control to test installation.
This will damage the thermostat and void the warranty.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
1
Install the thermostat 4 to 5 feet above the oor in an area with good air circulation and average temperature.
For new installations, mount thermostat on an inside wall, 4-5 feet above the oor.
Do not install the thermostat in the following locations:
• Behind a Door
• In a Corner
• Near Air Vents
• In Direct Sunlight
• With an Outside Wall Behind the Thermostat
• Near any Heat or Steam Generating Fixtures
• Near any Concealed Pipes or Chimneys
Installation at these locations will affect thermostat operation.

Caution:
Electrical Hazard.
Disconnect power before installing this
product. Failure to do so can cause
electric shock or equipment damage.
For a vertical mount, put screws
on the top and bottom.
For a horizontal mount, put
screws on the left and the right.
Mercury Notice:
This product is mercury-free. However,
if this product is replacing a control
which contains mercury, it needs to be
disposed of properly. Contact your
local waste management authority for
instructions regarding recycling and
proper disposal of the control.

Alternate Wiring (Conventional Systems)
If labels do not match letters on the thermostat, check the chart below and connect to terminal as shown
here (See notes, below).
1
Remove metal jumber if wires will be connected to both RH/R and RC terminals.
2
If a 24 volt common wire is present (typically labeled C or X) connect it to the C terminal. The C terminal is
not used if a 24 volt common wire is not present.
3
The O and B terminals are for a reversing valve (single stage heat pump application ONLY). These
terminals are not used on a system that is not a heat pump.
4
Place a jumper wire between the Y and W terminals if you have a single stage heat pump system ONLY.

the metal jumper in two-transformer systems.
Heat Pump Systems (with No Auxiliary or Emergency
Heat) If wiring to a heat pump, use a small piece
of wire (not supplied) to connect terminals W
(Heat relay) & Y (Compressor relay).
Wire specications
Use 18- to 22-gauge thermostat wire. Shielded wire
is not required.
Common Wire
The C (common wire) is optional when the thermostat
is powered by batteries.

Gas or Electric Setup
Select GAS or ELEC depending on the type
of furnace.
If ELEC is selected, the thermostat will operate

Adjusting the Differential (Also called
Swing or Cycle rate)
The differential is adjustable, a smaller
differential will cause more frequent
cycles andalarger differential will
cause fewer cycles. There are separate
differentials for heat and for cool. Follow
the steps below to adjust the differential
for heat or cool:
1.
Select HEAT or COOL with the system
switch.
2. Hold down the
+
and
-
keys
together for 3 seconds.
3.
Use the
+
or
-
key to adjust
the differential. The differential is
adjustable from ±0.2°F to ±2°F.
For example: A differential setting
of 0.5°F will turn the cooling on
at approximately 0.5°F above the
setpoint and turn the cooling off
at approximately 0.5°F below the
setpoint. The factory default for
cooling is 0.5°F and 0.4°F for heating.
4. Wait approximately 10 seconds for
the thermostat to return to normal
operation.
This feature allows the Installer to
change the calibration of the room
temperature display. For example: If the
thermostat reads 70° and you would like
it to read 72° then select +2. You can
adjust the room temperature display to
read -4°F to +4°F above or below the
factory calibrated reading. Follow the
steps below to adjust the temperature
reading:
1. Select OFF with the system switch.
2. Hold down the
+
and
-
keys
together for 3 seconds.
3. Use the
+
key to adjust the room
temperature display.
4. Then press
-
to access the F
(Fahrenheit) or C (Celsius) setting.
use
+
to select.
5. Press
-
again to access the
compressor DELAY selection. The
compressor delay will not allow
the compressor to be turned on
for 5 minutes after the last time the
compressor was shutdown. Use
the
+
to select ON or OFF. (ON
will prevent the compressor from
starting for at least 3 minutes). Wait
approximately 15seconds or slide
the system switch to return to normal
operation.
